The Most Authentic Books of Tafsir
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, we would like you to mention to us the best tafsirs of the Noble Qur'an, both the concise and the detailed ones.
Answer:
Yes. I have written a concise and a detailed tafsir. There are many tafsirs, some of which are concise and some are detailed. Some are sound, and some are subject to scrutiny. There are many sound tafsirs, but the older a tafsir is, the better it is. The tafsirs of the later scholars, such as the tafsir of Ibn Jarir, the tafsir of Ibn Kathir, and the tafsir of al-Baghawi, are old tafsirs, and they follow the methodology of the Salaf. Therefore, they are the most authentic tafsirs. Whoever came after them and followed their path is like them, while whoever opposed them differs from them.
